(4) Please note, We cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss, expense or other sum(s) of any description (1) which on the basis of the information given to Us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, We could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if We breached our Contract with you or (2) which did not result from any breach of contract or other fault by ourselves or our employees or, where We are responsible for them, our suppliers.

Complaints and problems: In the unlikely event that you have any reason to complain or experience any problems with your visit to the Attraction, you must immediately inform the supplier of the service(s) in question. Any verbal notification must be put in writing as soon as possible. Until We know about a problem or complaint, We cannot begin to resolve it.
